Urgently Needed 47re Stock Pan

Does ANYBODY have one local to N. Texas? Looking for the stock pan. Please let me know if you do and how much you want for it.

I picked up a B&M drain plug kit. It won't seal to save it's life. I'm going to pick up an aftermarket pan, but need to put a stock one on until it comes in to stop the leak.

If you want, bring your stock pan by the shop and we'll weld a bung in it - then you could even install one of those Fumoto lever-valve drains in it, instead of just a plug!

Sorry guys, I'm a little disappointed that you guys had to stay in a nice air conditioned house with an inside head and hot food, instead having to stay at the Hilton class accommodations at The Ranch.

Actually, thanks goes to Robert for his hospitality. It was good of him to step up and volunteer his place. RowJ stopped by on his way home and said we had some new blood this weekend and there was some really nice guys that showed. I hope you can make it to more of our GTG's.

Oh, almost forgot: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBERT! You don't look too bad for a 52 YO cop.

It was tough not being able to play with the fire ants and enjoying the sweat draining heat of the Sedalia field....but we managed to get by.

Seriously, I was glad to be in a position to offer it and have ya'll accept it! Thanks!

I don't have anything else to drive to get the pan to you. I found out that a 727 pan is the same bolt pattern. Deeper than the 47RE pan, and has a factory drain plug. Will be ordering an alluminum one this week.

THANKS FOR THE OFFER MIKE!

Many thanks to Brian (and Amy) and RJ for coming over to my house to install my new campaign LP

Thanks to Robert for letting us gather at his place and block the street
Nice to see some new faces and new trucks (even if they are 3rd gens).

Sorry I didn't get over there today, got busy doing stuff at home and with the wife. Before I knew it, it was 1500 hours.

Looking forward to next time.

~Rob

Wayne.....the 2nd genners are old news....underpowered has beens! The torch has been passed on to the new, 450hp from a tuner, 3rd gens! Besides, you GOTTA SHOW UP to "reclaim" any "perceived" Supremacy!!


yep Mike....I am aging fast doing this "fast" living...

Good to see you again 'Stranger' Rob! You left your camp chair at my house. It will be nice to add to my collection and hold hostage until we see you again....

BrIan left his bed roll too. Hopefully we will get them returned to proper owners at the next meet......whatever and whereever that will be!
